Amy Laurent is the answer to the successful single's quest for the perfect match.

It's a quest she knows well. While living in Los Angeles and working as an executive at an international trade company, Amy found that she had little time to search for her perfect match. After some deliberation and with high expectations, Amy signed on as a client of three of the largest matchmaking services in the country. Three years later, Amy grew frustrated by the number of times these matchmakers had misled her, setting up dating disappointment after disappointment. This frustration grew into motivation, which prompted Amy to find a way to leverage her bad experiences into a positive alternative for others seeking dating assistance.

Amy had a vision of a boutique matchmaking service that would handpick clients and carefully tailor a search for each, using differing criteria and first-hand personality comparisons. Her vision became a reality in 2005 when Amy launched Amy Laurent International (ALI) with her partner Alysia Ellin. With an unparalleled commitment to choosing only the most extraordinary singles and an unprecedented dedication to clients, ALI celebrated fast success in LA and after just a year, opened a New York City office in 2006. The increasing demand has led to offices opening in Miami, Chicago and the UK. Today, in addition to more than 50 marriages, Amy Laurent International boasts an 85% success rate for matching clients into serious relationships within the first three months of service.

Amy credits her matchmaking success to the personal attention that she bestows on each and every client. It is due to this personalized service and attention that ALI has quickly gained a reputation for being the most discerning matchmaking firm in operation today. ALI screens potential clients very carefully and only chooses to work with individuals that they can really get excited about.

Amy Laurent has been featured as a relationship expert in a variety of media outlets including: The CBS Early Show, The New York Times, NBC Around Town, BlackBook, Time Out New York, Z100/Y100 Morning Zoo, Life & Style Weekly and OK Magazine among others.
